DigiDays Audio Technology Festival Under Way in Montreal

CEV and Digidesign teamed up this week for DigiDays, five days of free audio-related events during which professionals and enthusiasts can quench their thirst for knowledge, training, and hands-on interaction with the industry''s latest and greatest tools for sound creation and production.

Using three world-class rooms and holding special events at some of Montreal's finest facilities (including the Oscar-winning National Film Board and Audio Z, one of Montreal's top commercial studios), this week-long audio bash will present the latest Digidesign technologies and the strongest offerings from Digidesign Development Partners. Digidesign will also be showcasing the all-new ICON D-Command medium-format console for the first time in Canada.

Special guest speakers will discuss their craft and cover a range of topics from MIDI sequencing to IMAX film mixing. Speakers include film mixer Gavin Fernandes, this year's Genie award winner for best film sound, and Alfio Annibalini, one of Toronto's hottest music mixers.
